Japan Expo in Brussel

Hellohello~

Here I am again with a little entry (with lots of pictures) from this year's Japan Expo in Brussel. It was my first time there. My friend Nathalie and I decided to go since we've already been to the one in Paris and wanted to know how this one is. Well it's much smaller than the one in Paris, like everyone can imagine. But it was nice anyway!

Compared to another smaller convention, the Animagic for example, this one had much more merchants with more different things to sell. There were also some live performances and other activities such as martial arts etc. The cosplays weren't as good as on the Animagic though....some were seriously awfull... Oh and what seriously got on my nervs were all the (creepy) people walking around with a "free hug" sign. Guys that time is over where that is seen as cute, please stop!

Anyway, I really liked it but I don't know if I will go again next year. The 3 hours of train (one way) are really exhausting and not worth it when you spend only 3 hours at the Expo itself. I was really happy that my old friend Nando accompanied us to the Expo and offered to spent some time at his appartment in Brussel. We could rest a bit until we took the train back to Luxembourg.

Alright~ here are some of my pictures (^ - ^)v

I didn't take many inside, since it looked like on every other convention.

After the Expo we went to Nando's appartment we took the time to play with his new little kitty. She's so cute :3 Her name is "Yoda Furchtbar 2 Griffy Valérie" xD I call her Griffy since that's a really cute name ^-^ She always tried to get in my bag x) so cute! I miss having a young cat to play.

hello little kitty~

bad picture quality sorry!

At the Expo lots of people asked to take pictures of me. Seriously I wasn't dressed that special no? Maybe it was because in Belgium people are not used to Gyaru and that there weren't that many people dressed colourfull. There were some Lolitas but... ok no comment. Here are some of the pictures I found!
